UAH LEGAL ISSUES
The law intersects the operation of a modern university in many ways.  Because of this fact, good decisions by university officials must be premised on an understanding of applicable legal requirements and duties.  As a way of offering guidance to the UAH community, the Office of Counsel has prepared and is making available a discussion of some important issues relating specifically to UAH.  These discussions, the titles of which are listed below, may be accessed by clicking on the title.
